Box Office: Cops, Werewolves and Exploding Toilets ... Oh My.

The Bourne Ultimatum pulled in some righteous bucks this past weekend, setting a record for an August release, and contributing to this being the highest grossing August weekend ever. I'll pass on using any lame jokes like "Bourne again" or "Bourne to be wild," not because I'm above that, mind you, but because I've already used them all. The Simpsons Movie dropped to number two, pulling in $25 million (mmmmm, box office). Incidentally, Hairspray missed being in the top five by, well, a hair, with Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix taking in just a few hundred thousand more than the musical. The numbers look like this:1. The Bourne Ultimatum:$69,283,690 2. The Simpsons Movie: $25,110,8733. Underdog:$11,585,1214. I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry:$10,626,3455. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix:$9,522,220

As we work our way into August, the flow of potential mega-blockbusters has ebbed. I wouldn't say any of this week's new releases have been hotly anticipated, though Rush Hour 3 seems to be the obvious big boy, and I'm personally looking forward to Stardust. Here's what's coming out this week:Daddy Day CampWhat's It All About: In this sequel to Daddy Day Care, Cuba Gooding, Jr. takes over the roll originally played by Eddie Murphy, and now he's launching a day camp. Zany, huh?Why It Might Do Well: I guess there's always a market for a good puke gag.Why It Might Not Do Well: Who's Your Caddy didn't do so well with a plot reminiscent of Caddyshack, and this one has visions of Meatballs dancing in my head.Number of Theaters: 2,200Prediction: $6 millionRush Hour 3What's It All About: Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan mix it up for a third time, officially making this buddy cop franchise a trilogy, taking the action and (hopefully) laughs to the mean streets of Paris. Why It Might Do Well: The original Rush Hour had a $33 million dollar opening weekend, with its first sequel opening with $67.4 million. Also, Jackie Chan can be pretty amazing to watch.Why It Might Not Do Well: It's been six years since Rush Hour 2; does the public still care?Number of Theaters: 3,000Prediction: $51 million

SkinwalkersWhat's It All About: Warring werewolf clans fight over a half human half werewolf boy who holds the key to their species' fate.Why It Might Do Well: It's definitely a good thing when a film helps demonstrate that torture porn isn't the only kind of horror out there. Why It Might Not Do Well: While I have a soft spot for the sub-genre, good werewolf films are hard to come by, and the trailer didn't wow me. Number of Theaters: 650Prediction: $4 million

StardustWhat's It All About: Based on a book by renowned fantasy writer Neil Gaiman, Stardust is the tale of a young man who sets out into a fantasy realm to retrieve a fallen star for his beloved, only to find that the star is in fact a beautiful young woman.Why It Might Do Well: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is beginning to run out of box office steam, so this looks like a good choice for fantasy buffs, and a cast that includes Robert De Niro, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Claire Danes can't hurt.Why It Might Not Do Well: I honestly can't think of a reason for this movie flopping.Number of Theaters: 2,300Prediction: $22 million
